Aren't the Seasons great? Did not get to appreciate them until I retired and moved to North Carolina from Florida.

We are on the Cusp of Fall
By Franklin Price
9/15/2016

We are on the cusp of fall
A chill is in the air
Leaf colors changing on the trees
Won't be long until they're bare

Hot days of Summer sweltering
Are coming to an end
The days are in transition
Nature once again to mend

Preparing for the Winter
Birds,  again, are passing through
Our feeders fill their stomachs
I feel we're helping nature too

That's how the birds are coping
In Fall a southerly migration
Bears too big who have no wings
Prepare for hibernation

Get outside and look around
Fall's our chance to nature view
How it prepares itself for Winter
So in Spring it may renew.
